>Please correct me if I am wrong. What I thought is that the stored procedures in a database (which is in the server computer) will be run in the server and thus must give the server computers system date. Is the stored procedure run in the server or the workstation computer?

VFP's Stored Procs run on the client system; the backend runs on the nachine issuing the SP column; there is no backend engine run on the server like SQL Server. It relies on the server only to shared data. If you want to run clode remotely, you need to use a COM server, either an out of process server via DCON, or in-proc hosted by COM+/MTS or similar tecbnologies to execute at the server, which might run under NetWare or Linux, which can't run VFP.
